Guide to Austin Houses For Rent

Austin Homes For Rent - It's not just the capital of Texas, but also known as 'The Live Music Capital of The World'. If you're looking for a rental home in the perfect city for people on-the-go with a rich nightlife and a whole lot of fun to be found, finding Austin homes for rent should be the beginning and the end of your search.

The Austin area boasts an enriching, fun environment and a strong economy made up of nearly 1.6 million residents; nearly

half living in Austin home rentals. Austin has developed into a major city and emerged as a top center for business and technology with a number of hi-tech companies including Dell, IBM, 3M, Samsung, Cisco, AMD, Hewlett-Packard and ApartmentHomeLiving.

But Austin isn't all about business. The Travel Channel has ranked Austin as the # 1 College town in the U.S. too. With a vast market of beautiful Austin rental home communities, compact geographical layout and an exciting nightlife that includes 6th Street, a premiere national Hotspot, Austin is the perfect mix for the college crowd. However the "Austinite" community isn't only limited to the college crowd. "Austinites" include a diverse mix of students, artists, politicians, high-tech workers, government employees, professors, and a ton of both white and blue collar workers. There is something for everyone here. Many residents of Austin houses for rent have adapted the slogan "Keep Austin Weird" in a campaign to retain the progressively urban yet down-home feel that Austin is known for.

With the city's nightlife hot-spot, 6th Street, serving as the epicenter for the plethora of live music, Austin is the perfect location to get out of your rental home and go see some live jamming! From outside stages like Stubbs or one of the two huge yearly music festivals South By Southwest or Austin City Limits, you can even hear the music radiate into your Austin home for rent through the air from miles away. Feeding off the energy of nearby University of Texas and the culture of nearby South Austin, 6th street serves as a mecca for all to enjoy. If you are looking for a little more of a lounge and upscale time out, hop over a few streets to 4th and 5th streets in the Warehouse district.

The rolling hills of West Austin and the Texas Hill Country are home to many wonderful parks, trails and nature areas that are close enough to the city to enjoy without having too stray far from your Austin rental home. It's a very common sight to see cyclist's enjoying these hills at any time of the day, exercising, training or just enjoying the view of the trails that Lance Armstrong still blazes from time to time.

Austin also poses as an epicenter for artist of all genres with the many theatres like the Paramont Theatre, Esther's Follies, Film Festivals, Art Galleries and Museums. At times being called the Hollywood of the South, Austin is home to many feature film and independent film productions too.
